Call me whatever you want, but if I was Jones I would have never given Tarver a second match without a tune-up fight. The way I see it, if Tarver can't beat Jones the first time then why do it a second time? Jones was out of shape and physically drained yet Tarver still couldn't beat him.
Too many boxing fans judge a fighter on his ability to know when to leave the ring, not on his achievements inside the ring. These men dont get to the peak by knowing when to quit, they get there by not knowing how to quit. Sadly, it's this same mentality that wont let them stop. Roy Jones was, in my opinion, the most gifted fighter of the past 30 years. In fact, alongside Willie Pep, Sugar Ray Robinson, Harry Greb and Joe Louis, I would say he is in the top 5 p4p talents ever.
@Ronlg1 he just said he liked to be the underdog maybe its a stradigy he is using to have everybody against him so he can come out on top again think about it
I think that whole, "You do it long enough, its gonna get to you." Thing is getting to him with the whole 9 rounds previously and then the next 4 rounds thing
@CheapHatchback i think there great questions threwout this show better than other shows that only concern on drama ect.. this show has great interview on RJJ

Roy should take his own advise and stop fighting. This coming from a true fan. i'm not liking this "Roy got knocked out again" thing...
